At Harvey Weinstein trial, six women accused him of sexual assaults. Here are their stories

LA Times  

Harvey Weinstein is escorted into court on May 25, 2018, in New York. Over the last two weeks, Weinstein’s accusers have made a number of graphic allegations of sexual assault in hotel rooms and apartments in New York City, with many of them sharing the same elements — a promise of career advancement, an invitation somewhere private, and a night that accusers said would leave many of them horrified even decades later: Annabella Sciorra Actress Annabella Sciorra arrives as a witness in Harvey Weinstein’s rape trial in New York on Jan. 23. She said she thought “rape was something that happened in a back alleyway or a dark place,” committed by “someone you didn’t know with a gun to your head.” Mimi Haley Haley, a former production assistant on the Weinstein Co.-produced reality show “Project Runway,” said she first met the mogul at the premiere of “The Aviator” in 2004. Mann said their relationship turned after a meeting for drinks at the Montage in Beverly Hills to discuss a possible role in a “vampire movie.” Weinstein invited Mann and a friend — who is expected to testify for the defense — up to his hotel room. At trial, prosecutors said Wulff ran past Weinstein and later shrugged off the incident as the mogul being a “dirty old man.” A few weeks later, after agreeing to what she believed to be an audition at Miramax’s New York offices, Wulff got into a private car sent by Weinstein only to be escorted instead to the producer’s apartment.
